The latest research shows that there is a right time for all of us to do everything, from drinking a cocktail to getting a flu shot. The catch? That 'right time' varies from person to person. Fortunately, as Dr Michael Breus proves in The Power of When, learning to work with your body clock to achieve maximum health and productivity is easy, exciting and fun. When we stop focusing on the 'how' and 'what' of our lives and start focusing on the 'when', we reveal our body's natural schedule and unlock our hidden potential. In The Power of When, Dr Breus presents a groundbreaking new programme based on the most cutting-edge research for how to get back in sync with your body's natural rhythm. Filled with fascinating facts, true-life success stories, fun personality quizzes and easy to follow guidelines, The Power of When will teach you how to not only understand your own body clock, but the body clocks of everyone around you. After you've taken Dr Breus' comprehensive chronotype (body clock) quiz (are you a bear, a lion, a dolphin, or a wolf?) you'll learn to schedule your day for peak productivity and well-being. Whether you are interested in the nitty gritty of body clock research or just want to follow the big-picture plan and learn how to be your best, The Power of When promises to help you achieve your goals.

Nie je dôležité iba to, „čo“ a „ako“ robíme, ale aj „kedy“. Nie všetci sa totiž najlepšie sústredíme, spíme, najľahšie vstávame či máme najviac fyzických síl v rovnakom čase. Prečo je to tak? Množstvo bežných vecí, ktoré denne vykonávame, sa totiž riadi podľa našich biologických hodín, čiže podľa prirodzených procesov, ktoré sa v našom tele počas dvadsaťštyrihodinového cyklu dejú. Tieto biorytmy nedokážeme ovplyvniť, preto nedokážeme najlepšie pracovať vtedy, keď to práve potrebujeme, alebo sa zabávať, keď to najviac chceme. V knihe sa dozviete, prečo je dôležité tieto procesy poznať a ako z nich vyťažiť čo najviac pre svoje zdravie a celkovú pohodu. Autor rozdeľuje ľudí do štyroch skupín (chronotypov) podľa toho, aký typ prirodzeného vnútorného načasovania majú a odporúča im, kedy majú čo robiť.

Timing + Movement = Energy. Master the simple formula that will transform your life. Tired of being tired? Too exhausted to get anything done? If this sounds familiar, you are in the right place - things are about to change. Most people don't realise that the main reason we are exhausted is that we are living out of sync with our biology.

Using core principles from chronobiology and biology, they outline an easy-to-follow, personalised programme based on your body type that will give you incredible energy, promote happiness and fight off fatigue for good.
